Nearly a month after Rocky Point’s Thurber Lumber Co. Inc. closed its doors, developer Mark Baisch of Landmark Properties plans on transforming the property to make room for senior citizens. Baisch said he wants to establish 40 one-bedroom apartments on the former 1.8-acre space near Broadway to help the area’s aging population. Baisch hasn’t finalized rent for these 600 square foot apartments, but said future residents will pay a little more than $1,000 a month. Baisch has been met with some opposition on his plans. “People say he does good work, but to come in and say ‘this is what’s going to work down here, even though you don’t want it,’ is kind of strange,” said Albert Hanson, vice president of the Rocky

Point Civic Association and chair of the land use committee. Hanson said the civic and members of the community, who found out about the plans in February, haven’t had ample time to brainstorm alternative ideas for the area.

Hanson added that the area doesn’t need additional housing. According to Suffolk County Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai), Rocky Point is a high-density area already, and she added that the Thurber property is also a

small area for Baisch’s apartments. The Legislator said she envisions different plans for the property. “I would love to see a community center over there,” said Anker. “[The property is in] the heart of Thurber Lumber continued on page a4

After three years, Rocky Point Board of Education President Susan Sullivan will run for re-election. Those who are eligible to apply for the position can do so by April 18. The new term begins on July 1, and ends on June 30, 2019. Board of education candidates, including incumbents, can pick up applications from and submit them to Patricia Jones, Rocky Point’s district clerk. Candidates must be United States citizens, be at least 18 years old, be qualified voters in the district and live in the area continuously for at least one year before the election, according to the New York State School Boards Association requirements. Although Sullivan and other board members declined to comment on her seat prior to the application deadline, board Vice President Scott Reh said Sullivan, who has lived in the district for decades, brings knowledge and

experience to the board. “It’s been wonderful,” Reh said about having Sullivan on the board. “She’s upfront, she’s honest [and] she cares about the community, the students [and] the school district.” Sullivan’s lived in the area since 1985. She worked for the district for 32 years as a teacher and eight years as an assistant principal before she retired as an educator. She first ran for her seat on the board in 2013, against teaching aid Jessica Ward. Once a candidate files their application, he or she must also disclose their campaign expenses in a sworn statement filed with district clerk. Once elected to the seat, new board members undergo mandatory training from the New York State School Boards Association during their first year on the board. The association was founded in 1896 in Utica and serves more than 650 boards of education. School boards are usually composed of community vol-

who voted in the previous election, must sign the application. The applications must include the candidate’s name and residence, the vacant seat, name of the incumbent, residences of those who signed the applications and the length of term the candidate seeks. Candidates can submit applications no later than 5 p.m. on April 18. For more information, contact Jones at 631-849-7243.

A few Brookhaven officials are bringing in more bacon after the town board approved salary increases for them during a meeting last Tuesday. Brookhaven Highway Superintendent Dan Losquadro (R), Town Clerk Donna Lent (R) and Town Tax Receiver Louis Marcoccia (R) will see an uptick in their salaries following the board’s unanimous vote — Losquadro from $98,534 to $112,000; Lent from $92,386 to $100,000; and Marcoccia from $90,922 to $100,000. But some community members weren’t on the same page as the board. “There’s no doubt they deserve a raise, however, we all do and we’re not getting one,” Brookhaven resident James Wilkie said during a public hearing on the matter. “Taxpayers of this town, as you know as well as anybody else, are hurting.” Supervisor Ed Romaine said the positions in question haven’t seen salary increases in the past eight to 10 years. “Several years go by and it becomes evident that other municipalities are paying higher than Brookhaven for different positions,” the supervisor said. Town Attorney Annette Eaderesto said the town looked at the salaries for those positions in neighboring towns and took the average. “You want to stay competitive, you want to be able to attract good people to this job in the future,” Romaine said be-

fore the vote. “One way to do it is to make sure the compensation is accurate.” Clifford Hymowitz, president of a part-timers union in the town, expressed gratitude that the town is financially stable enough to increase certain employee salaries, but demanded similar recognition for people working part time. According to Hymowitz, 38 of his 171 part-timers have made less than $12 an hour over the past four or five years. He added that some have worked for a decade or more and are still making $9.75 an hour. Eaderesto noted that residents who wish to put the salary increases up for a public vote have 45 days to submit petitions to request a referendum.

A March 24 article, entitled “Rocky Point finalizes budget,” contained incorrect information about the school district’s budget process. The district would only have to cut $360,000 and public use of its facilities, to reduce the district’s expenditures, if the proposed budget does not pass in a public vote and it needs to fall back on a contingency budget. We regret the error.

Activists flock to Flanagan for education funding By Alex Petroski

A small group of people carried the voices of thousands of New Yorkers standing up for students across the state. Activists representing four New York State and Long Island groups in support of education funding — especially for lowincome districts — dropped off a petition with more than 9,000 signatures from across New York to state Sen. John Flanagan’s (R-East Northport) office in Smithtown last Wednesday. Those in support of the petition pledged their support for state Assemblymen Carl Heastie’s (D-Bronx) “millionaire tax bill,” which was introduced in February and proposed an increase in taxes to those who earn upward of $1 million annually. The petition was also in support of a full phase-in of the money still owed to pay off the Campaign for Fiscal Equity resolution, which ensured that $5.5 billion would be committed to mostly high-need districts in 2007, and was supposed to take effect over the course of four years. This was a result of a lawsuit started in 1993, which eventually reached the New York State Court of Appeals, which ruled that highneed districts were being neglected. About $781 million of that money is still owed to Long Island schools, according to advocates of the resolution.

From left, olivia santoro, Daphne Marsh, Victoria Daza, Aaron Watkins-lopez and Blanca Villanueva, representing advocacy groups for education funding delivered a petition to sen. John Flanagan’s smithtown office last Wednesday.

The groups represented at Flanagan’s office included New York Communities for Change, Jobs with Justice, Long Island Progressive Coalition and Alliance for Quality Education as well as community members from across Long Island. Flanagan was not in his office, and a legal aide who took the petition declined to comment. “We need to address the emotional, physical, social, needs of the child and the Senate has shown that they are not caring right now with the budget they have pro-

posed,” said Blanca Villanueva, an organizer from Alliance for Quality Education. “We need them to represent us because they represent all of New York State.” The petition was also delivered to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) New York City office, Villanueva said. Flanagan has said in the past that he is against the millionaire tax bill. He did not respond to a request for comment regarding the petition. “As a constituent of Sen. Flanagan’s, I

am calling on him to support the millionaire’s tax,” said Olivia Santoro, a member of the Long Island Progressive Coalition. “I valued my public school education and I want the same opportunity for students growing up in his district and across Long Island. That means that we need to fully fund our schools.” On March 21, a group of about 40 wealthy New Yorkers in conjunction with the Fiscal Policy Institute and the ResponFLANNAGAN continued on page A12

On March 21, Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) was joined by Councilman Michael Loguercio (R-Ridge) at the demolition of the building formerly known as the Oxygen Bar, on the northwest corner of Route 25A and Broadway in Rocky Point. The demolition comes after numerous Brookhaven Town building code violations and resident complaints. The Town shut down the bar in 2011 due to an expired Place of Assembly permit after a non-fatal shooting of four people occurred there. It has been a vacant eyesore in the

downtown Rocky Point.” But Town of Brookhaven Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) said Baisch’s plans comply with a land use plan conducted in the area several years ago. Brookhaven officials adopted the land use plan for downtown Rocky Point back in 2012. The plan called for medium density housing in downtown Rocky Point, among other improvements. Although some residents oppose the plan, the councilwoman said there is a need for these kinds of residences townwide. “There’s a large number of seniors who live back in North Shore Beach …. and many have reached out to me excited about this,” the councilwoman said. Baisch wanted to create apartment units because of the property’s sanitary flow requirements — the amount of sewage per unit is less for a 600 square foot unit. According to Baisch, the apartments will give seniors more freedom in their daily lives. He added that Suffolk County is committed to establishing a bus stop in the area to further assist prospective senior residents. “They have to pay taxes, they have to pay their oil bill, they have to pay for repairs [for their home] — Rocky Point is probably one of the most unsafe communities I know of, to walk around,” Baisch

community ever since. “This is a happy day in Rocky Point, and a long time coming,” Bonner said. “Removing this blight will keep the revitalization of our business district right on track. We’ve got more to do, and I look forward to working with our local business and community leaders to keep moving ahead.” The Town purchased the property in November 2015 and Bonner is working with the Rocky Point Veterans of Foreign War to transform it into a veterans memorial square, which will serve as the gateway to the downtown business district. said. “So they have all these things that are burdening them as seniors and they basically have nowhere to go.” Baisch added that these residents could live comfortably in his apartments on their Social Security or the equity they received after selling their home. While some senior citizens, like Linda Cathcart of Rocky Point, don’t plan on selling their home any time soon, she said Baisch’s plans will bring a stable population to the area. “There’s 40 units proposed, so you’re talking about possibly 80 seniors who could bring business to the existing businesses,” Cathcart said. “Also, it would encourage new businesses to come into the area.” Cathcart added that Baisch discussed putting the original railroad station structure from the area on the property, in addition to the apartment units. The railroad structure dates back to the 1920s and 30s. Despite the proposed plans for the property, Hanson said the civic and some community members were debating using other local talent or developers to establish a vision and plan for the area that appeals to other residents. “We have to think of what we would like to see down there that would make us draw [people to downtown Rocky Point],” Hanson said about the property. “I think what a lot of people don’t want is losing the opportunity to actually have a downtown.”

After tragedy, veteran’s family receives new home Movers & Shakers BY DESIRÉE KEEGAN

When Louis Bonacasa was to return home from his fourth deployment to Afghanistan, he told his wife he’d make it his last. He wanted to settle down, buy a home, become a dietician technician, open a business, give his 5-year-old daughter Lilianna a sibling and finally begin his life. But Bonacasa didn’t return home. To honor him and his wife Deborah, also a veteran, the

Rocky Point Veterans of Foreign War Post 6249 chose the Bonacasa family to receive one of two homes being built on Tyler Avenue in Sound Beach. “I don’t have the words,” said Deborah Bonacasa, whose husband was one of six killed in a suicide bomb attack on Dec. 21, 2015. “It’s an honor, and I’m just very happy and overwhelmed with joy for their support in fulfilling this dream, because it’s something that my husband always wanted to do for the family — to provide the home for us. So it’s quite an honor.” VFW Post Commander Joe Cognitore held the contract signing at the Fischer/Hewins post last Wednesday, and said it was a moving moment to be a part of. “It was one of the best days I’ve had in all my time here at the VFW,” he said. “It was very cathartic. To know that we’ve helped Deborah out, and not only was her husband a veteran, but she is too; it’s that much more gratifying to be able to honor both for their service.” This is the ninth home that Cognitore and the VFW have partnered on with Mark Baisch of Landmark Properties in Rocky Point. “It’s my way of giving back,” Baisch said. “The Bonacasas are

fantastic. It couldn’t be a better selection.” Landmark Properties builds the houses from the ground up, and Bonacasa was able to pick out some of the finishing touches to make the house special to her. “I was able to pick out cabinets, flooring, what type of granite I wanted,” she said. “I was able to personalize it and able to pick certain colors that my husband would have liked to have in the kitchen and bathroom, so that was a special time.” Bonacasa, who currently lives in California and lived with her husband in Coram for nine years after leaving the U.S. Air Force in 2006, said that being able to move into the new

Hahn hopes to create child fatality review team By PHiL CorSo

County lawmakers are taking a proactive approach toward keeping Suffolk kids safe. The Legislature unanimously voted last week to establish a 13-member Child Fatality Review Team panel tasked with reviewing all childhood fatalities across Suffolk County deemed to be unanticipated, suspicious or the direct result of physical trauma. Legislator Kara Hahn (D-Setauket), who sponsored the bill, said the team’s findings would not be used to assign criminal or civil liability in death cases involving children, nor would they be used for prosecutorial purposes. The main objective, she said, was to make it so similar incidents do not repeat themselves at Suffolk County children’s expense. In a statement, Hahn, who serves as majority leader in the Suffolk County Legislature, said the panel would work to identify the underlying causes of a child’s death and find what resources, if any, could have prevented that outcome. “As a culture, we strongly hold that children aren’t supposed to die,” Hahn said. “When that understanding is challenged by a child’s death, natural or otherwise, there is a reflexive and necessary motivation to uncover the reasons why and ways to prevent similar circumstances from leading to additional losses.” The 13-member panel would be made up of medical, child welfare, social ser-

vice and law enforcement professionals who would be looking at the facts and circumstances relating to the deaths of children under the age of 18. The deaths would also need to be deemed either unexplainable or the result of violence, including that which is self-inflicted. “Suffolk County takes the public health and safety of all our residents, especially our most vulnerable, very seriously,” the county’s Chief Medical Examiner Michael Caplan said. “By assembling this review team and collaboratively studying the recent losses of life in Suffolk County, we may be able to prevent similar tragedies in the future and provide potentially life-saving services to those who may be in need of them.” Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone’s (D) signature is the only thing standing in the way of this bill becoming a law. In a statement, the county executive said he was in favor of the review team and planned on signing it into action promptly. “The public safety of all of our residents, especially our most vulnerable, is of paramount concern to us,” Bellone said. “By creating this review committee, we are creating an opportunity to analyze and review circumstances surrounding violent child deaths in an effort to prevent similar tragedies and provide potentially life-saving services to those who may be in need of them.” Hahn said the team would hold its

first meeting within 90 days and quarterly thereafter. The panel’s data would not include any identifiable information and its records would be kept confidential, Hahn said. Any reports generated by the team would also be submitted to the state’s office of children and family services when they are finished. The North Shore is no stranger to incidents that could qualify for the kind of review Hahn’s panel would be seeking. In October 2014, 16-year-old Thomas Cutinella of Shoreham-Wading River High School suffered a fatal head injury after colliding with another player dur-

ing a football game. In July 2014, a Kings Park man was convicted of beating his 43-day-old son to death. In December 2015, an 11-year-old from Kings Park died just days after a van struck her as she crossed a road in her hometown. The state’s office of children and family services said Suffolk County recorded an average of 12.6 child fatalities annually between 2010 and 2014. The office also found that in the year 2015, average percentage of case workers with more than 15 investigations on their caseload on the last day of each month between July and December was 33 percent.

Steve Bellone delivers environmental boost By ALex PetroSKi

Suffolk County is making strides toward a greener future. On Monday Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) announced upgrades designed for energy efficiency to several county buildings, including key spots in Smithtown, that should save taxpayers more than $3 million annually. Improvements were made to the H. Lee Dennison building in Hauppauge, where the press conference was held, the Board of Elections in Yaphank, the Riverhead Criminal Courts Building and the 4th Precinct police building among others. The county has invested about $15 million in energy efficiency funding since 2010, Bellone said. “As you know Suffolk County is home to more than 1.5 million people,” Bellone said. “It’s the largest county in the state of New York outside of the city. Of course we provide an array of different services to all of those residents. So many of our operations and facilities are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We’re responsible for the operation of more than 400 facilities. Since we are a large operation, it’s vital for us to embrace as leaders green energy and alternative energy sources in our day-to-day operations.” Some of the upgrades Bellone announced included new boilers, replacement

of lights, occupancy sensors, improvements to heating, air conditioning and ventilation systems and a photovoltaic system installation for the Board of Elections building that will provide solar energy. Officials from LIPA and PSEG Long Island joined with environmental advocacy groups at the press conference. “Partnering with PSEG Long Island and LIPA and utilizing their rebate programs made these long-term energy savings possible, and they assisted with the up-front cost that might otherwise hold back the important projects that you see displayed here,” Bellone said. Both LIPA and PSEG Long Island incentivize energy efficient upgrades for residents and commercial property owners with rebates. LIPA CEO Tom Falcone and PSEG Long Island COO Dave Daly both praised Bellone for his leadership, and for the example that he has set for New York State. “Suffolk County is demonstrating that local government can take very concrete steps to reduce the carbon footprint, clean the environment and reduce cost for citizens,” Falcone said. Gordian Raacke, the executive director for the nonprofit organization Renewable Energy Long Island commended Bellone for his proactive approach to energy efficiency. “You know when world leaders meet in

Paris to talk about what we need to do to tackle climate change, it is the kind of action that we’re seeing here with the leadership of County Executive Bellone in Suffolk County that they’re talking about,” Raacke said. “All of the talk in the meetings doesn’t do anything. It doesn’t save a ton of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gas until a leader steps up to the plate, a leader like Steve Bellone, and makes it happen.” Neal Lewis, the executive director of the Sustainability Institute at Molloy College

sent a message to other municipalities that have yet to follow Suffolk County’s lead. “Frankly, inaction by elected officials today when it comes to energy issues is wasteful,” Lewis said. “If you have a town hall that still has old lighting systems, old heating systems, old cooling systems — you’re wasting taxpayer dollars. I think that’s an important message.” Bellone said that these projects are just the beginning, and more cost and energy saving upgrades are to come for the county.

Budgets going down

If both library budgets pass, Comsewogue readers will pay a few extra dollars and Port Jeff’s tax levy will stay flat.

In library district votes, Comsewogue also has trustee race By Elana Glowatz

Comsewogue and Port Jefferson readers will vote on their libraries’ budgets on April 5, as well as one board trustee. Ali Gordon, the library board president in Comsewogue who also serves on the school board, is not running for another term and two candidates are vying for the library seat she will vacate at the end of June, following a sevenyear stint on that board. Richard Evans, 50, is running for the five-year seat because, “I would like to be of service to my community,” according to a candidate profile on the Comsewogue library website. He listed his occupation as a special agent with the U.S. Secret Service, saying that role has given him experience interacting with the public. In addition, he said, “My experience as a computer forensic examiner gives me insight and growth of electronic media and its uses.” He has lived in the district since 2011, and is an assistant coach with the Terryville Soccer Club. Chris McCrary, 49, on the other hand,

is running because, “Comsewogue Public Library has been a huge part of my life since I joined the summer reading club in 1971.” According to his own candidate profile, the longtime resident and high school biology teacher wants to share his passion for reading and show kids “the tremendous resource they have in our own backyard.” McCrary’s name may be familiar to some voters — in addition to coaching soccer and lacrosse in the area over the years, he has run a couple of times for the Comsewogue school board, albeit unsuccessfully. Comsewogue budget As residents vote for a trustee, they will also be asked to cast ballots for a proposed $5.4 million budget. While that number represents a decrease from last year’s budget total, taxes would go up slightly, mainly because the library would pull less money from its reserves to fund the budget. According to a library brochure, the district is asking to collect 1 percent more in taxes in 2016-17 — a number significantly less than its state-mandated levy cap of 1.48

percent would allow. If the budget passes, residents would pay almost $0.13 more for every $100 of their homes’ assessed values. The library plans to spend more on its materials and programs next year and less on staffing and mandated expenses. According to library Director Debbie Engelhardt, both library visits and overall circulation of library materials has increased since last year.

Port Jefferson budget Over in Port Jefferson, the library is proposing a nearly $4.2 million budget, which also represents a decrease from the current year’s spending plan. In this library’s case, however, taxes would remain about the same in 2016-17. According to a library brochure, Port Jefferson has seen savings from retirements. In addition, “a reasonable conclusion of collective bargaining negotiations also helps keep costs in line.” One budget line that would increase is in programs, which would go up almost $18,000, while costs for books, audio and visual materials and periodicals would all decrease. The brochure said further movement toward cheaper digital formats has contributed to that shift. If the budget is approved, each resident would pay about $12.54 for every $100 of a home’s assessed value. Voting at the Comsewogue library on Terryville Road in Port Jefferson Station will take place on Tuesday from 9:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Polls will be open at the Port Jefferson library on Thompson Street from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Racing seven marathons in seven days In April, Eva Casale, ultra-marathoner and vice president of information technology for Suffolk Federal Credit Union, will run seven marathons in seven days — each day centered on honoring local servicemen killed in action and linked to communities they called home that SFCU now serves. The marathons will raise funds for Hope for the Warriors, an organization that provides support programs for service members, veterans and military families. Sponsored by SFCU, Casale and her supporters, Team E.V.A., will run 184 miles in seven days, from April 2 to 8. For a $50 donation, supporters are invited to run with Casale for the last seven miles of each day’s journey. “I wanted to put my passion for running to work for veterans,” said Casale, who added that she chose Hope for the Warriors because E.V.A. stands for Every Veteran Appreciated. “The sole purpose of Hope for the Warriors is to help those

touched by military service to succeed here at home. The programs they offer post-9/11 active duty and reserve service members, veterans, military caregivers and families of the fallen are making a tangible difference in people’s lives.” Casale has been a runner since high school and has run 57 full marathons and 34 ultra-marathons. She decided 10 years ago to pair her passion for running with support for charitable organizations, and has raised more than $150,000 for charity, including the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. “Individual efforts that support our organization — efforts like this extraordinary series of seven marathons that Eva Casale will be running in April — are vital to our ability to serve post-9/11 service members,” said Steve Bartomioli, director of Hope for the Warriors. “We are grateful to Eva, and to Suffolk Federal, for supporting our veterans in need.”

MMA legalized By Alex Petroski

Discussion of mixed martial arts elicits a wide range of opinions, though very soon one thing will be indisputable: it will be legal in New York. The State Assembly passed a bill that will lift a near 20year ban on the sport on March 22 with a 114 to 26 vote. New York is the only state in the country where it is illegal to take part in a mixed martial arts event. The bill will become law after New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo signs off, though he has expressed support in the past. Assemblyman Mike Fitzpatrick (R-St. James) was one of the 26 that voted against the bill. “The legalization of mixed martial arts fighting in New

York is the perfect example of what former Senator Patrick Moynihan would characterize as ‘defining deviancy down’ and normalizing a dangerous blood sport in the name of economic development,” Fitzpatrick said in a press release. “This is not the economic development our state needs. I am concerned about the health of fighters and what message normalizing and lauding violence sends to our children and families. Just because 49 other states do it doesn’t make it right for New York.” Assemblyman Chad A. Lupinacci (R-Huntington Station) cosponsored the bill. “I am thrilled that the Assembly has finally passed legislation to bring this highly skilled sport to the arenas and venues across New York State,” Lupinacci said in a press release. “There are many fighters native to New York who have been forced to leave the state to pursue their dream of competing professionally. Legalization will allow them to stay in their hometowns and compete in front of their families and friends.”

Reactions to the vote reverberated across the MMA community. “I truly appreciate the New York State Assembly as a whole to finally get this bill passed,” Baldwin native and active Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Chris Weidman said in an email through his media contact. UFC is the premier MMA governing body in the world. “Along with the UFC, I campaigned very hard to get this done and made sure the people of New York were educated about mixed martial arts and how important it is for the sport to be regulated in our state,” Weidman added. “The people of New York have spoken and I think in the very near future I will be able to showcase my craft and my hard work to the people of New York.” North Shore native and United States Marine Corps veteran Devin Mollberg, who has trained in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and boxing as a pastime since his return from service in Afghanistan in 2014, offered his perspective on the decision by the State Assembly. Mollberg, 28, has said he hopes to pursue a career in mixed martial arts. “It’s about time,” Mollberg said in an interview. “It’s a great thing for all NY fighters and definitely a positive thing for the state. It should have happened a long time ago but now there is nothing but good things to come from here.” The decision will generate 525 permanent jobs and about $70 million in annual spending, according to Lupinacci’s release. Assemblymen Andy Raia (R-East Northport) and Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) both voted in favor of the bill.

sible Wealth Project sent an open letter to Cuomo in support of Heastie’s millionaire tax bill. Those in support included Steven C. Rockefeller and Abigail Disney, among others. Flanagan’s proposed 2016-17 budget would eliminate the Gap Elimination Adjustment, which has cost districts across the state millions of dollars over the past several years in an effort to close a deficit. It also included almost $600 million for education, though Villanueva said at Flanagan’s office that it was not enough. “We’ve got this Campaign for Fiscal Equity that we’ve been working very hard to support and we hope that [Sen. Flanagan] can stand with the students in making sure that they receive a quality education and the funding that’s necessary in order to deliver that,” Melissa Figueroa of New York Communities for Change said last Wednesday. “We need this support, and I hope that he gets down with us.” Figueroa is also running for a school board seat in the Hempstead school district. Signs held by those in support of the petition read, “Stand up 4 kids, NOT billionaires,” “Sen. Flanagan, who do you represent?” and “Millionaires Tax: Raise taxes on the 1% by 1% to raise billions for public school education.” The petition was launched on www.ColorOfChange.org, an organization dedicated to fighting institutional racism.

It was a battle until the final seconds. In a frenzied finish, four goals were scored in the final minute, ending with Harborfields’ varsity girls’ lacrosse player Angela Deren scoring the game-winning goal with 5.6 seconds left for a big 8-7 victory over Miller Place Tuesday. “It feels great,” said Deren, a senior attack. “Our attack and our riding helped, and our goalie saved us a lot. It was a great team win.” Deren was right. The Tornadoes’ sophomore goalkeeper Erin Tucker kept her team in the game, coming up with 15 saves on the evening. She said she felt the excitement as the last seconds ticked off the clock. “The energy on the field was amazing,” she said. “It felt like we won states, so it was awesome to be a part of.” Miller Place started off scoring the first two goals of the game, and by halftime, had a 3-2 advantage. Harborfields junior attack Mikayla Bergin scored the game-tying goal in

the opening minutes of the second half, but Miller Place senior midfielder Alyssa Parrella helped her team edge ahead with her second goal of the afternoon off a foul shot. “Although it didn’t go the way we wanted it to go, I know every single girl on my team put in the hustle and the MILLER PLACE LAX continued on page A15

After Parrella tied the game, 5-5 with 6:40 left to play, she got a foul shot, but Tucker came up with one of her crucial saves. “I knew I had the support of all of my teammates out there, which gave me the confidence I needed to make the saves when I needed to,” Tucker said. “It felt awesome to be able to help my team.” Harborfields scored for the advantage, and after assisting on the goal, Harborfields senior midfielder Ella Simkins received a long pass up and across the field from Deren and shot the ball into an open right side for a 7-5 advantage with 55 seconds left to play. With the game on the line, the Panthers pushed to even the score. Harborfields head coach Kerri McGinty said she knew Miller Place had what it took to rally back. “We knew that Miller Place was going to be really good, really athletic, have a lot of speed — we didn’t get off to the start we were hoping for, but what’s most important is that the girls had a team win here,” she said. “We’re a very dynamic team this year.

OPINION EDITORIAL

A brighter future

Suffolk County put out a request for proposals to help redefine what the former Steck-Philbin Landfill brownfield site on Old Northport Road in Kings Park could look like, and this week a Stony Brook group has proposed to build a solar farm there. We were excited to read some of the details behind the Ecological Engineering of Long Island plan, which the firm’s president Shawn Nuzzo said would deliver significant amounts of solar electricity to Long Island’s power grid without decimating anymore of the area’s land. This is the kind of development we hope our fellow Long Islanders can get behind. The solar farm proposal is an example of what can be done with Long Island’s most problematic properties. All we need is for residents and politicians to give it a chance. Oftentimes we encounter widespread resident opposition across our North Shore communities to development proposals of any sort for various reasons. But by giving projects like this a thorough look, coupled with an open mind, we believe we can address some of the biggest environmental issues facing the Island. In this case, for example, transforming an industrial area into something that could benefit us all seems almost like a no-brainer. The former landfill site in Kings Park is no doubt an eyesore and a horrific blight on the greater North Shore community, so why not see it transformed by a legal and reputable business? EELI wants to come in and build a 6-megawatt solar farm through crowdfunding dollars, so let’s support the firm. This quote from Nuzzo, also the president of the Three Village Civic Association, said it all: “Unlike other recent utility solar projects on Long Island — where large developers have proposed to clear-cut forests, raze golf courses and blanket farmable lands — our proposal takes a dangerous, long-blighted and otherwise useless parcel and revives it as a community-owned solar farm,” he said. We say reputable, by the way, because of the several letters of support Nuzzo and his team received from some of the North Shore’s staunchest environmental advocates, including state Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) and Brookhaven Town Councilwoman Valerie Cartright (D-Port Jefferson Station). This property is a perfect example of what we could do with so many more of our neglected areas across the North Shore. The landfill is not situated directly next door to someone’s house, so the “not in my backyard” argument holds a little less weight. It’s time we think smart when it comes to repurposing our landscape.

Head coach Steve Pikiell addresses the crowd that turned out to send off the men’s basketball team to the NCAA tournament.

Farewell, good luck TO ThE EDITOR: For 11 years we’ve watched and sometimes been there as Steve Pikiell built a Stony Brook University Basketball program to the point where the Seawolves were among the top handful of basketball powerhouse universities in the NCAA tournamentw last week. We wish him well and the same to Stony Brook Athletic Director

Shawn heilbron, who now will lead the way to identifying a new coach for the Seawolves, to identifying ‘a world-class coach who shares our vision to positively transform the life of each student-athlete and win at the highest level.’ And, a thought for Steve from chamber executive director David Woods, who’s sort of a historian of the “old days’’ at SBU, 17 years ago, when David was assistant to the president there: ‘Way back, there was

an indication of where great coaches go from Stony Brook. One of our first was a young Rollie Massimino, now 81, who left here to go to Villanova, where he built the number one basketball team in the nation.’ May Steve Pikiell have the same success at Rutgers.

The mythology of real and imagined heroes

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

news@tbrnewspapers.com

odern mythology, as it was for those Greeks and Romans long ago, is a carnival mirror. Mythology helps us see ourselves and our world using distortions to exaggerate truths or to give us a chance to focus on different parts of our lives and society. The Greeks created these spectacular stories to understand how the sun crossed

the sky to where spiders came from. The former occurred because Apollo pulled a chariot across the sky and the latter was a result of a mortal woman named Arachne engaging in a weaving contest with the goddess Athena. For the Greeks, these stories offered a possible cause for the inexplicable and helped ordinary people cope with the seemingly arbitrary and capricious nature of events around them. Why, they might wonder, did their favorite tree die when lightning struck it? Zeus must have been upset about the latest offering or about the words you said when you were at the market. A chest of gold washed ashore near you? You must have done something to please Poseidon. Our modern myths and heroes come from many places. People win Purple Heart decorations from grateful presidents, earn medals of honor for their valor, or walk or run hundreds of miles to raise money for worthy

causes. The list, of course, is much longer than that: Scientists and doctors fight to find cures for cancer, autism, heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease and many other problems; firefighters race into burning buildings to save others; and police officers protect and serve our communities. Hollywood wants a piece of the hero action, pumping out movies about people with the everyday courage to challenge conventional thinking. The studios have invested considerable money in the live action version of comic book characters, cranking out stories about men and women with spectacular powers, incredible toys and spirited enemies. In a new twist, Batman and Superman will battle it out around the same time that Captain America and Iron Man clash. Is it a coincidence that these movies are coming out at around the same time? Maybe. Is it a coincidence that they’re coming out at the same time that Trump and Hillary

get ready for the main event? Maybe not. In any case, these movies, which hope to capture plenty of dollars, have seized on something visible in our carnival mirror. People, like their on-screen superheroes, want to do the right thing — whatever that may be. At the same time, others, driven by a similar desire, may pull in the opposite direction. A conflict is inevitable, particularly in the context of a modern world in which quick reflexes are more important than reason and consideration. We don’t sleep on decisions anymore or consider our moves or the consequences. With people plugged in wherever they are, the world requires instant responses. Strength comes from thoughts that travel at the speed of Zeus’ lightning bolt. Like the Greek gods who fought with each other, our modern movie heroes are no better than the rest of us. They

Hollywood has seized on something visible in our carnival mirror. are limited by their perspectives, weaknesses and a past that threatens to push them in the same decision-making rut. What does the carnival mirror, at least the one that Hollywood is using, suggest about where we’re heading in a country divided between red and blue states, between us and them? I don’t know how these new movies end, but I suspect these superheroes learned to stop fighting and work together. Hopefully, the Republicans and Democrats, who stand in front of the same flag and ask God to bless America, will figure out a way to reach across the aisle and create the kind of peace, security and prosperity we would all like to experience. Wouldn’t that be a nice Hollywood ending?

European travel hit by terrorist bombs

between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

news@tbrnewspapers.com

arlier this week, there was a news report on the radio that 50 percent of hotel rooms in London and Paris were empty. Individuals, tour groups, even business travelers had canceled their reservations and were staying home. The statistics made me sad. When I was graduating from high school in 1958, I passionately wanted to travel to some distant shores and see what life

in those countries was all about. I had read about Paris in my French class, had translated Julius Caesar’s “The Gallic Wars” from the original Latin, studied the rise and growth of democracy and personal freedoms in my history class, and tried to understand political ideas like communism and socialism in political science class. Now I wanted to see these concepts in action in the real world. My mother was adamant: “You can travel to Europe with your husband. Not before!” Sure enough, the first time I crossed the Atlantic, I sat beside my husband on an eight-day guided tour of London. How fascinating and instructional it all was. How much knowledge I amassed by the time I returned. How much more I understood. I was hooked on travel for the rest of my life. It was said then that we were citizens of our countries, but our children and grandchildren would be citizens of the world. And that prediction has come true. My grandchildren have

already been to three different continents. The impressions they brought back have made them smarter, better and more compassionate people, and they have not yet even reached their majority. But what about today? Are the risks worth the rewards? We know there is a lot in the news these days to make us angry and fearful. Maybe those two emotions are really the same. Almost every day there are reports of carnage of innocent people across the globe triggered by terrorists who want to make a political or sectarian statement, or are looking for revenge. The death and maiming of those victims, whose only misstep was being in the wrong place at the wrong time, is a modern tragedy — a game of Russian roulette. The more gruesome the killings, the more notice their assailants get. Children killed, sure. People slaughtered as they are kneeling in prayer, yes. Aid workers risking their lives with humanitarian motives ... kill them. The ultimate idea is to spread a

tsunami of fear and isolation. When people stop traveling, the terrorists know their brutal efforts are working. In a world that has become wonderfully global — with citizens of different countries interacting and coming to understand the customs and religions of each other, with economies benefiting from tourist spending that raises standards of living — travel is a natural target for those who would bomb us back into the Stone Age. And to what end? The purpose of the killers is power, the power to better control the masses, to attract followers by using corrupted ideology and perverted religious tenets, to enrich themselves with plunder — age-old strategies throughout the bloody centuries. Nothing new here. What is new is a world interconnected by jet planes and Internet information in a way that was unimaginable in the past. Yes, there was the Silk Road and trade routes around the capes of the continents centuries ago. But they were open only to the adventurSPORTS EDITOR Desirée Keegan ASSOCIATE EDITOR Ellen Recker ONLINE EDITOR Elana Glowatz ADVERTISING DIRECTOR Kathryn Mandracchia

The ultimate idea is to spread a tsunami of fear and isolation. ous few, and those few were more interested in commerce than in societal change. Too many people now have tasted the fruits of travel, enjoyed the wonders of seeing new treasures, tasting new foods, enjoying new dances, meeting new people, appreciating new lifestyles, applauding different forms of government, for the clock to ever be turned back. That is why the killers seek to destroy art and architecture wherever their bloodthirsty rampages take them. They don’t want people to see the different wonders of the world and equate them with new ways to live. So, is it worth it? Is travel to return to only the most daring and adventurous who sailed the seas and trekked the land? I don’t think so. Remember that old song? “How you gonna keep ’em down on the farm after they’ve seen Paree?”
